Hi Lisa, My son had Microsoft Office 2000. He did an upgrade off the net, and from his discs. I will wait for tomorrow so he can check it. It should have "Front Page" in it which has most everything. I didn't have to spend a penny, which was nice. He had purchased it but registered it on line, on my computer, so it is really registered to me but my son used it for our business, not on line. We have 3 PC's but only mine is on line, and I have the high speed internet - on the phone lines, but not on cable or TV. Too many problems yet. I went pricing them today, and was told that if we have Microsoft Office 2000, which is the professional productivity Disc, it should have everything I need. I remembered my son buying it so here I am, almost ready to go. He did an install tonight, but had to go out, so it will be tomorrow before I know that everything is up and working. Because I do have him as my back-up, I am reasonably confidient I can do whatever you need. I was a typist which should help also. Most of the upgrades are on the net, once you have purchased the orginial discs, so it is just a matter of having the patience to wait while they down load, check the files and do the changes. I am lucky, but I hope the others will also pitch in, if not, I'll just keep plugging away at it. I'll drop you a quick note tomorrow to let you know if it is working. I still have trouble sending to your E-mail address. I use Outlook Express, but I have no idea why this problem.
